<pre>Description:
Currently, Drop Caps can only be the size of the first paragraph. This is a
problem if the first paragraph is shorter than your desired Drop Caps-size.
Steps to Reproduce:
1. Create a Drop Caps text-style. Let's set them to Height: 3 Lines.
2. Write your Drop Caps-paragraph but end it after 1 or 2 lines.
3. The Drop Caps will stay tiny.
Actual Results:
See attached "Test-Screenshot"-picture.
Expected Results:
Drop Caps should always look the same, regardless of how long the first
paragraph is. Following paragraphs should wrap around the Drop Caps letter(s),
as though they were a picture, set to let text flow around it.
(See "Proper-Caps"-picture)
Reproducible: Always
User Profile Reset: No
Additional Info:
As can be seen in the ""Workaround""-picture, you have one - sub-optimal - way
to deal with the current Drop Caps: Create a manual line-break by using
SHIFT+ENTER.
However, this
1. Distorts the Text of the first line
2. Forces the second paragraph to use tje Drop Caps-style as well.
3. Therefor removes the usual styling of the second paragraph such as font,
size, italics or indent.
All of these would have to be corrected manually.</pre>
